meet baby monstaa!

boo! are you scared? it’s baby monstaaa . . . he’s rolled into town for halloween, and in between playing peekaboo and letting out some frightening baby monstaa screams, he’s making a guest appearance on our blog.

is a bonnet for a baby, knit flat, sewn up the back, and then embellished with some monster fins down the middle. The fins are knit in the round so that they won’t fall over. a great project for using up some leftover yarn.

materials

Moo Cotton: approximately 15-20g in Clementine and and 10-15g in Watermelon

Step 1: fold the bonnet in half (see picture) and sew along the bind-off edge.

Step 2: sew the 6 fins down the center of the bonnet, leaving about a 1″ space at the base of the bonnet.

Step 3: cut two 3 feet lengths of Watermelon yarn and four 3 feet lengths of Clementine yarn. Thread two lengths of Clementine yarn and 1 length of Watermelon yarn through the base on the bottom left hand corner of the bonnet. Pull the yarn through half way. Double up the yarns, keeping the colours together, and then braid down the length of the yarn. When 1″ remains, knot the yarn and trim the tassels. Repeat on other side.
